Ghostfolio
Stocks, ETFs, crypto, bonds, precious metals, and cash across every account and currency, in one privacy-first dashboard: Ghostfolio is open-source wealth management software. The deliberate design decision is no brokerage linking: positions enter by manual entry, CSV import, or the REST API, so your holdings never pass through a data aggregator. Performance is measured as return on average investment across Today, WTD, MTD, YTD, 1Y, 5Y, and Max timeframes, with benchmark comparison against indices like the S&P 500, dividend tracking, and allocation breakdowns by asset class, region, and sector. A static X-ray analysis flags concentration and other portfolio risks, and a FIRE calculator projects progress toward financial independence. Multi-currency support converts holdings using historical exchange rates, market data comes from Yahoo Finance and CoinGecko among other pluggable providers, and everything exports back out as CSV or JSON. Built with Angular and NestJS on PostgreSQL and Redis, shipped as Docker images for amd64 and ARM, with a mobile-first PWA interface, dark mode, and a distraction-free Zen mode. AGPL-licensed.
Mail-in-a-Box
Mail-in-a-Box turns a single Ubuntu server into a fully functional email system with one setup command, installing and configuring Postfix for SMTP, Dovecot for IMAP, Roundcube for webmail, and Z-Push for Exchange ActiveSync push notifications in an automated sequence that would take days to replicate manually. The DNS server auto-configures the full suite of email authentication records: SPF, DKIM, DMARC, DNSSEC with DANE TLSA, MTA-STS, and SSHFP. Getting all of these right is what separates email that lands in inboxes from email that lands in spam, and most manual installations never achieve the complete set. Nextcloud integration adds CardDAV contact sync and CalDAV calendar sharing across devices. Let's Encrypt certificates provision and renew automatically for every hosted domain. The web control panel manages users, aliases, custom DNS records, and automated backups, protected by TOTP two-factor authentication. Daily health checks verify that services run correctly, ports remain open, TLS certificates stay valid, and DNS records resolve properly, alerting you before delivery problems develop. Multiple domains and users operate from one installation with internationalized domain name support. Built-in HTTPS static site hosting uses the TLS infrastructure already in place. Runs on a dedicated RepoCloud VPS with guaranteed resources, root SSH, and browser serial console for complete email sovereignty. CC0 public domain licensed.
KeeWeb
Your KeePass vaults, opened from any browser: KeeWeb reads, edits, and creates standard KDBX files, so it works with the same databases as KeePass and KeePassXC without conversion or lock-in. Self-hosting the web app gives you a password manager reachable from any modern browser, including mobile, with no client installation and no third-party cloud in the loop. All KDBX cryptography runs client-side; the server just serves the static app. Open multiple vault files simultaneously and search them all from one box, with advanced options covering specific fields, password history, and regular expressions. Vaults load from local files, your own server (WebDAV), or Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive, with automatic sync - and files are cached for offline use, so a dropped connection never locks you out; changes resync once you're back online. Day-to-day niceties include a configurable password generator, protected fields that stay masked and are held in memory more defensively, entry history, tags with easy input, drag-and-drop attachments, and per-entry icons with favicon fetching. The optional KeeWeb Connect extension (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) autofills credentials using the keepassxc-protocol. MIT-licensed with matching desktop apps for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Vane
Perplexity's search experience without Perplexity: Vane deploys Perplexica, an open-source AI answer engine built as the self-hosted alternative. Instead of returning a page of links, it reads your question, searches the live web through the SearxNG metasearch engine, and composes a direct answer with cited sources. Retrieval quality comes from embeddings and similarity search: fetched pages are re-ranked against the query so the model answers from the most relevant passages rather than whatever ranked first. Two query modes cover different needs - Normal mode runs a straightforward web search, while Copilot mode generates multiple reformulated queries and actively pulls content from top matches for harder questions. Focus modes specialize retrieval for academic papers, YouTube, Reddit discussions, Wolfram Alpha calculations, or the general web. The answering model is your choice: OpenAI-compatible APIs or fully local LLMs such as Llama 3 and Mixtral through Ollama, which keeps queries entirely on your infrastructure. Because SearxNG pulls live results, answers reflect current information, and no search history is tracked.
SearXNG
Up to 280 search services - Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Qwant, Startpage - aggregated without tracking or profiling: SearXNG is a privacy-respecting metasearch engine (AGPL-3.0, successor to Searx). Your instance queries the upstream engines on your behalf: your IP address, cookies, and search history never reach them, tracker parameters are stripped from result URLs, and an optional image proxy fetches thumbnails server-side so result pages leak nothing. It can even route outbound queries through Tor for full anonymity. Search is organized into categories - general, images, videos, news, maps, music, IT, science, files - with bang shortcuts for targeting specific engines, and every source can be enabled, disabled, or weighted per category in settings.yml. A plugin system adds calculators, hash tools, tracker removal, and unit conversions inline, and preferences (themes, safe search, languages, engine selection) persist in cookies rather than server-side accounts. The real argument for running your own instance rather than trusting a public one is control: you decide the logging policy (none), the engine mix, rate limiting, and who gets access - making it the default search backend for browsers, families, and teams that want Google-quality results without the profile.
BentoPDF
Merge, split, compress, convert, edit, annotate, redact, OCR, and sign PDFs - BentoPDF packs over 130 tools into a privacy-first toolkit that runs entirely in the browser through WebAssembly. Files are never uploaded - processing happens in browser memory on the user's machine and disappears when the tab closes, which makes the tool GDPR-clean by architecture and safe for financial, legal, and internal documents. The engine combines WASM builds of PyMuPDF, Ghostscript, and CoherentPDF; Tesseract handles OCR with searchable text-layer output; Office conversions cover Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; and digital signatures use X.509 certificates (PFX/PEM) with the private key staying on the client. Because there is no server-side processing, deployment is a static-file exercise: a single Docker container, or any static host. A dedicated self-hosted build strips the marketing pages while keeping every tool, and air-gapped deployments are first-class - an automated script bundles the WASM modules, OCR language data, and fonts for fully offline networks. No accounts, no limits, no watermarks; TypeScript and Vite under the hood.
Haven
Haven gives your community a private chat server with voice calls, screen sharing, and end-to-end encrypted direct messages where friends join via invite link in their browser without installing apps or creating third-party accounts. Real-time messaging supports image uploads via paste and drag-drop, emoji reactions, replies, threads, typing indicators, @mentions with autocomplete, and inline GIF search through Tenor or GIPHY. Peer-to-peer WebRTC voice chat includes per-user volume sliders, mute and deafen controls, talking indicators, and screen sharing with picture-in-picture mode. Direct messages use ECDH P-256 key exchange with AES-256-GCM symmetric encryption where private keys never leave the browser, ensuring not even the server operator can read them. Twenty-plus visual themes with stackable effects including CRT scanlines, Matrix Rain, Cyberpunk Text Scramble, Snowfall, and Campfire Embers let users personalize the experience with configurable intensity sliders. Rich Presence integration shows what members are playing or listening to via Last.fm, Steam, and Spotify. A built-in bot API supports webhooks and custom slash commands, while Discord history import preserves channels, threads, forums, reactions, pins, and avatars. The Node.js server deploys via Docker Compose or a single batch file that auto-handles dependencies, SSL certificates, and configuration. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Securo
Securo is a privacy-first personal finance platform that keeps all your financial data in your own PostgreSQL instance while connecting to 2,500+ banks across three continents for automated transaction sync. The FastAPI backend with React/TypeScript frontend deploys via Docker Compose on ports 3000 and 8000, with Redis-backed Celery workers handling background synchronization. Bank connections span approximately 2,500 European PSD2 institutions through Enable Banking across 29 countries, US and international banks via SimpleFIN's open protocol, and Brazilian banks through Pluggy, all refreshing automatically every four hours. Multi-account management tracks checking, savings, credit cards, and investments with running balances. The auto-categorization rules engine applies pattern-matching across merchants and amounts. Goal tracking monitors savings targets with progress visualization, asset management handles stocks and custom instruments with configurable valuation growth rules, and reports generate Net Worth and Income vs Expenses charts with category sparklines. Optional AI Agents provide LLM chat with tool-use over your financial data through MCP, supporting OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, and compatible providers with per-agent RAG knowledge bases accessible via a global command palette. Multi-user support includes OIDC login, passkey authentication, TOTP two-factor, privacy mode, and multi-currency FX conversion via Open Exchange Rates. 1,500+ stars since March 2026. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Ackee
Page views, referrers, browsers, and screen sizes - Ackee delivers the analytics developers actually check, from a deliberately minimal Node.js and MongoDB stack that skips both Matomo's weight and Google Analytics' cloud dependency. Its defining constraint is anonymization: no cookies, no unique user tracking, and a multi-step anonymization process that keeps visitors unidentifiable while the aggregate numbers stay useful. In its default anonymous mode Ackee collects no personally identifiable information at all, which means GDPR and CCPA compliance out of the box and no cookie consent banner on your sites. A detailed mode adds screen size, language, and per-visit referrers - still without cookies or fingerprinting. Integration mirrors the Google Analytics pattern: create a domain in settings, drop the generated ackee-tracker snippet into your pages, and data appears in a clean single-page dashboard. One instance tracks multiple domains, and custom events capture button clicks, signups, and conversions. The distinctive engineering choice is the fully documented GraphQL API: everything the dashboard shows comes from that API, so you can query active visitors, average duration, and view statistics programmatically, feed data in from apps and services beyond websites, or build an entirely custom interface on top. If you want bare-minimum analytics with a real API and zero privacy anxiety, this is the tool.
Memos
Open the page, write a Markdown note, move on - Memos is a lightweight, self-hosted service built for quick capture. Instead of folders, notebooks, and titles, it presents a timeline: open the page, write a Markdown note, and move on. Notes support headings, code blocks with syntax highlighting, task lists, tables, and file attachments, with tags auto-extracted from #hashtags in the text. Each memo carries a visibility level, private, protected (logged-in users), or public, so one instance works as a personal log, a small team wiki, or a lightweight microblog. The backend is a single Go binary with a React frontend, around 50 MB of memory at runtime and a ~20 MB Docker image, so it fits comfortably on the smallest instance size with near-zero maintenance. SQLite is the default store, with MySQL and PostgreSQL supported for multi-user deployments needing more concurrency, and full REST and gRPC APIs - Connect RPC for browsers, gRPC-Gateway for external tools - make capture scriptable from CLIs, bots, and automation platforms. Fast full-text search spans all memos, pinned notes keep references handy, and a masonry view suits visual browsing. MIT-licensed with zero telemetry; content is stored as plain Markdown in a database you control, so notes remain readable, exportable, and free of proprietary formats.
GoatCounter
GoatCounter delivers meaningful web traffic insights — pageviews, referrers, browsers, screen sizes, country-level geolocation — without setting a single cookie, without collecting personal data, and without forcing GDPR consent banners on your visitors. Written entirely in Go and distributed as a single compiled binary consuming roughly 25MB of RAM, it adds just 3.5KB to your pages via the tracking script, with a JavaScript-free tracking pixel alternative for sites that avoid scripts entirely, plus backend middleware integration and log file import for server-side collection. The dashboard displays pageview counts per path with hourly resolution, referrer sources grouped by domain with full URL on hover, browser and OS version breakdowns, screen size distributions, and country-level location data derived from IP addresses that are immediately discarded after geolocation. Campaign tracking supports UTM parameters and custom data attributes. A public stats option exposes your dashboard at a shareable URL for build-in-public transparency. SQLite serves as the default database requiring zero administration, while PostgreSQL handles higher-traffic deployments with multi-site setups. Built-in ACME and TLS certificate management eliminates reverse proxy requirements for HTTPS — no Nginx or Caddy needed. The REST API provides programmatic access to all analytics data. Deploy as a single binary, via Docker with the official arp242/goatcounter image, or through native packages. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. EUPL-1.2 licensed.
LibreTranslate
Machine translation with no Google, no Azure, no per-character billing, and no text leaving your infrastructure: LibreTranslate is a free, open-source translation API that runs entirely on your own server. The engine underneath is Argos Translate, which runs OpenNMT neural models with SentencePiece tokenization and Stanza sentence-boundary detection, all offline. Models install as portable .argosmodel packages covering dozens of languages - English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Portuguese, and many more - and Argos handles automatic pivoting: with es-to-en and en-to-fr installed, it chains them to translate es-to-fr without a direct model. The API is a straightforward HTTP POST to /translate with source and target language codes, returning JSON - simple enough that the ecosystem has clients in every major language and integrations across tools like Weblate and Mastodon. Beyond plain text it translates HTML while preserving markup and handles whole file uploads (documents in, translated documents out), plus automatic language detection when the source is unknown. A clean bundled web UI serves interactive translation for end users, and optional API keys with rate limits control access. AGPL-licensed and trainable with custom models, it is the standard answer when translation must be private, unmetered, and self-contained - GDPR-sensitive text never touches a third party.
Traggo
With over 1,600 GitHub stars and a design philosophy that fundamentally rethinks how time tracking should work, Traggo abandons the traditional project-task hierarchy that forces your work into rigid categories and instead lets you tag time spans with arbitrary key-value pairs — project:website, type:coding, client:acme, billable:yes — enabling cross-dimensional analysis that conventional trackers cannot replicate. The Go backend compiles into a single binary that runs alongside a SQLite database and embedded web UI in under 10MB total, consuming approximately 50MB of RAM at runtime and starting in seconds on even the smallest VPS. Tags are the fundamental data model: create any tag key with any set of values, then apply multiple tags to each time span simultaneously to track by project, client, task type, energy level, or any other dimension your workflow demands. Customizable dashboards render pie charts, bar charts, and line graphs from tag-aggregated data, letting you visualize time distribution across any combination of dimensions over configurable date ranges. The calendar view displays time spans as colored blocks across days and weeks, while the list view provides chronological entry browsing with inline editing. Multiple themes including light and dark modes adapt the interface to personal preference, and simple user management with role-based access supports small team deployments. Docker deployment runs a single container exposing port 3030 with multi-architecture support for amd64, arm64, and arm v7. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.
Umami
No cookies, no fingerprinting, no cross-site tracking, no personal data collection - Umami's privacy contract is the foundation of the open-source web analytics platform. IP addresses are hashed rather than stored, which makes it GDPR, CCPA, and PECR compliant by default - the consent banner can come off the site entirely. The tracking script is under 2 KB, roughly 20x smaller than Google Analytics, so measurement stops being a page-weight tax. The dashboard covers the core metrics - pageviews, visitors, bounce rate, visit duration, referrers, browsers, devices, and countries - with any date range and filtering by country or device. Beyond pageviews, custom events track clicks, form submissions, and signups via a data attribute or one JavaScript call, and advanced reports add funnels, user journeys, retention and cohort analysis, goals, and automatic UTM campaign tracking. Anonymous session views show individual visitor activity without identifying anyone. Teams share websites with role-based access, one instance manages unlimited sites, and a full REST API exposes every metric programmatically. MIT-licensed and self-hosted on PostgreSQL or MySQL via Docker, your analytics data never leaves your infrastructure.
Password Pusher
Credentials sitting forever in email threads and chat scrollback - Password Pusher solves that everyday security failure. Instead of pasting a password into Slack, you push it - a password, note, file, URL, or QR code - and share a unique one-time link that expires after a set number of views, a time limit, or both. Content is encrypted at rest with AES-GCM under a configurable master key, optionally guarded by a passphrase, and permanently deleted from the database the moment it expires; a retrieval-step option keeps URL-scanning bots from consuming views. Full audit logs record when each link was created and viewed (and by whom, with logins), and TOTP two-factor authentication can be required instance-wide. The delivery page is deliberately unbranded - no logos or confusing links for recipients - and the interface ships in 31 languages with light and dark themes. Automation runs through a JSON API (v2), an official CLI for pushing and expiring secrets from the terminal, a Chrome extension, and a catalog of third-party integrations. Apache-2.0 licensed Ruby on Rails, deployable via Docker, Kubernetes, or Helm, with SQLite or PostgreSQL storage - the sysadmin staple for sending credentials that clean up after themselves.
Roundcube
Two decades of continuous development made Roundcube the standard-bearer of open-source webmail - a PHP IMAP client that gives any mail server a polished, application-like interface in the browser. It connects to whatever IMAP/SMTP stack you run - Dovecot, Postfix, a hosted mailbox - and delivers the full desktop-client experience: drag-and-drop message management, threaded conversation views, full MIME and HTML mail handling, find-as-you-type address book with groups and LDAP connectors, multiple sender identities, full-text search, and spell checking in dozens of languages. The default Elastic skin is genuinely responsive, working as well on a phone as a desktop, and the entire UI is skinnable. The plugin API is where deployments get shaped: managesieve exposes server-side filter management in the UI, enigma brings PGP encryption and signing via GnuPG, markasjunk trains spam filters, zipdownload batches attachments, password lets users change credentials, and attachment_reminder catches the classic forgotten-attachment email - among hundreds of community plugins. Built-in caching keeps large mailboxes fast, IMAP ACLs and shared folders support team setups, and XSS protection is engineered into the rendering pipeline. It scales from a single personal mailbox to unlimited users, backed by MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, or SQLite. GPL-licensed with regular security releases.
CyberScraper 2077
With 3,100+ GitHub stars, CyberScraper 2077 replaces brittle CSS selectors and XPath queries with natural language data extraction powered by Large Language Models. Users paste a URL, describe the data they want in plain English, and the AI extracts structured results from any website — no HTML parsing knowledge required. The tool supports three LLM backends: OpenAI GPT models for maximum accuracy, Google Gemini for cost-effective extraction, and local Ollama instances for fully private scraping where URLs and data never leave your server. Built on Python asyncio with Playwright browser automation, it handles concurrent page fetching with content-based and query-based LRU caching to minimize redundant API calls. The Streamlit web interface runs on port 8501 and provides one-click export to JSON, CSV, HTML, SQL, Excel, and direct Google Sheets upload. Tor network integration routes requests through onion routing for anonymous scraping of both clearnet and .onion hidden service sites with automatic circuit management and stream isolation. Stealth mode randomizes user agents, manages cookies, and controls JavaScript execution timing to bypass bot detection systems. Multi-page scraping navigates through paginated results with automatic URL pattern detection. Docker deployment packages all dependencies including Playwright browsers into a single container. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
It Tools
The utilities engineers otherwise scatter across a dozen ad-laden websites - 80+ of them - live together in IT-Tools, one fast, polished web app. Crypto covers JWT decoding, MD5 through SHA-512 hashing, HMAC and bcrypt generation, RSA key pairs, and password strength analysis. Converters handle JSON to CSV, YAML, and TOML, Base64 files, URL encoding, HTML entities, color formats, and Docker run commands to Compose files. Generators produce UUIDv4, ULID, BIP39 mnemonics, QR codes (including Wi-Fi QR), and tokens; text tools include a regex tester, diff viewer, slug and case converters; web utilities parse URLs and user agents, look up HTTP status codes and MIME types, and inspect Open Graph metadata; plus a cron parser, chmod calculator, and more. The privacy argument is the point: JWTs contain user IDs, hashes derive from passwords, JSON dumps hold PII - exactly the inputs you least want a third-party utility site to log. IT-Tools is a frontend-only static bundle (Vue/TypeScript, GPL-3.0, 39k+ GitHub stars) served by Nginx in one container, so everything runs client-side on your infrastructure with nothing transmitted anywhere. New tools ship roughly monthly, and a scaffolding script makes adding custom ones straightforward.
